XFX has been known for some quite impressive AMD custom graphics cards and it appears that the company is working on a custom version of the RX Vega.

Although there are no precise details regarding the pictured card, spotted by Videocardz.com, and we still do not know if this is a custom version of the RX Vega 56 or RX Vega 64, or if it will be used for both, we get to see in which direction XFX is going.

The large dual-heatsink, dual-fan cooler has been placed on top of a short PCB, which should give additional cooling performance but also leaves the 8+6-pin PCIe connectors in the middle of the card (which suggest that this is the RX Vega 56). This is a rather interesting approach but might be a problem when it comes to cable management.

The cooler also comes with a full cover backplate, which somewhat limits the airflow of the second fan but should provide rigidity to the who card, especially with that huge heatsink in the front.

The pictured card also has a LED-illuminated XFX logo at the top and it lacks the usual DVI output.

Hopefully, XFX and other partners will be able to push their custom RX Vega graphics cards before the start of the holiday season but so far, it appears that limited supply and high demand are still plaguing AMD.

Despite earlier worrisome rumors that some partners might not be working on custom Radeon RX Vega graphics cards, it appears that most, if not all partners will be launching their custom RX Vega versions in late October/early November.

Due to the fact that custom versions are most definitely late, mostly due to the supply/demand issues, it does not come as a surprise that we have seen rumors that some partners have simply given up on those and will rather focus on the upcoming Geforce GTX 1070 Ti graphics card from Nvidia.

Thankfully, it appears that those rumors, originally coming from Tomshardware.de, are not true and according to reports around the net, both Gigabyte and MSI will probably come up with fully-custom versions of the RX Vega 64 and RX Vega 56, which could launch in late October.

According to Hardware.info, Gigabyte will be preparing quite a few custom versions that should be arriving in week 42/43, which puts it somewhere between October 16th and October 29th.

Currently, only Asus has launched its custom Strix RX Vega 64 graphics card but this might be a marketing move with a few samples for reviewers, as you simply can't find it listed anywhere.

According to what we heard, Sapphire, XFX, Powercolor and other partners are working on their versions and Sapphire's Nitro could be coming soon. As we wrote earlier, AIB partners generally need eight to ten weeks from the chip order to launching a custom version to the market and if you can't get your hands on enough chips, there is no way to make it.

Hopefully, custom RX Vega graphics cards will not be further delayed as Nvidia will certainly put a lot of pressure on them with the upcoming Geforce GTX 1070 Ti.

XFX has unveiled its newest Radeon RX 480 Crimson Edition graphics card that is mostly based on the previously available RX 480 Double Dissipation but comes with red LED lighting and detachable fans.

As noted, the new XFX Radeon RX 480 Crimson Edition graphics card has the same PCB design as the RX 480 Double Dissipation graphics card including the XFX logo on the top side, as well as detachable red-LED fans that do not spin up when the card is in idle. It also comes with a full cover backplate.

The GPU of the RX 480 Crimson Edition works at 1120MHz GPU base and 1288MHz GPU Boost clocks while 8GB of GDDR5 memory, with a 256-bit memory interface, ended up clocked at 8.0GHz. It still needs a single 8-pin PCIe power connector and comes with three DisplayPort, one DVI and one HDMI 2.0b display output.

According to provided details, XFX is also working on other graphics cards that will be a part of its Crimson Edition, namely the RX 480 4GB and the RX 470, but it did not reveal any details on the price or availability date.

It appears that HIS is no longer the only firm to offer a single-slot Radeon RX 460 as XFX has its own Radeon RX 460 Core Edition that will be available in both 2GB and 4GB versions.

Spotted by Videocardz.com, the XFX RX 460 uses a slim single-slot cooler with a 70mm fan which should keep the smaller Polaris 11 GPU well cooled. It uses a red and black color scheme on the shroud and features DVI, HDMI 2.0b and DisplayPort 1.4 outputs.

The new XFX RX 460 Core Edition will be available in 2GB and 4GB GDDR5 versions. Both versions are sticking to AMD reference clocks, 1090MHz GPU base, 1220MHz GPU Boost while 128-bit interface memory ended up clocked at 7.0GHz. As this is a Radeon RX 460 graphics card, it does not need an additional PCIe power connector, drawing enough power from the PCIe slot to satisfy its 75W TDP.

Bear in mind that XFX is also the only AMD AIB partner that offers a passive cooler Radeon RX 460, although with a large 2-slot heatsink.

Unfortunately, there is no information on the price or the availability date for the new single-slot XFX RX 460 Core Edition.

XFX has apparently released a passive Radeon RX 460 graphics card for Asian market, which should be quite interesting to those looking to make a completely silent PC system.

Spotted by Overclock3D.net, the new XFX Radeon RX 460 features a dual-slot passive cooler with a rather hefty heatsink, which should have no trouble in cooling the smaller Polaris 11 GPU.

According to details provided by Expreview.com, the passive XFX Radeon RX 460 actually hits decent temperatures with heating up to 33 degrees in idle and 62 degrees under load. Of course, this depends on the actual airflow inside the case.

As announced earlier, the AMD Radeon RX 460 is based on Polaris 11 GPU with 896 Stream Processors, 48 TMUs and 16 ROPs. The reference version works at 1090 MHz base and 1200 MHz GPU Boost clocks, which is probably where XFX has left this card as well. It also comes with 4GB of GDDR5 memory paired up with a 128-bit memory interface.

The passive XFX Radeon RX 460 graphics card is perfect for those making a completely silent PC system or a HTPC. Unfortunately, due to a hefty heatsink and heatpipes, the passive XFX Radeon RX 460 is somewhat taller than your standard graphics card and also take up two slots. The good side of the story is that the Radeon RX 460 TDP is at below 75W so it does not need additional PCI-Express power connectors.

Unfortunately, passive XFX RX 460 is currently only available in Asia and there is no word if it will be launch in Europe or the US.

While AMD Radeon RX 480 has been selling for quite some time, we are yet to see some of the first custom versions and although there should be plenty of them soon, we now have more details regarding XFX's own Double Dissipation version which will feature a custom PCB, hefty factory-overclock and dual-slot, dual-fan cooler.

As was the case with earlier Double Dissipation series graphics cards from XFX, the cooler on the upcoming XFX RX 480 Double Dissipation graphics card will also have two separate aluminum heatsinks that are connected to a copper base via four 6mm heatpipes. The cooler also comes with two 90mm fans which are easily removable without taking off the cooler shroud.

According to known details, the custom PCB will be based on a 6-phase VRM with DirectFETs which draws power from a single 8-pin PCIe power connector. This should be enough for XFX to push for a hefty factory-overclock and although these are still unknown, some reports suggest it could go above 1300MHz. The card will still come with 8GB of GDDR5 memory paired up with a 256-bit memory interface.

According to Videocardz.com, which leaked pictures, the XFX RX 480 Double Dissipation could be coming as early as this week which is perfect timing in order for AMD to counter Nvidia's GTX 1060 launch, scheduled for later today.

Apparently, XFX was quite keen to launch the new Radeon RX 480 graphics card as the company has no less than three different versions, all with the same reference blower-style cooler, two factory-overclocked with 8GB of RAM and the RX 480 4GB Core Edition.

According to the XFX product page, the two factory-overclocked, or as XFX calls it "tuned by XFX", 8GB RX 480 graphics cards, both come with a custom backplate and the same blower-style reference cooler. The AMD Radeon RX 480 Tuned by XFX - Custom Backplate XXX OC works at 1288MHz for the GPU while the RX 480 Tuned by XFX - Custom Backplate Black Edition works at 1328MHz for the GPU. Both also come with 8GB of GDDR5 memory clocked at 8000MHz.

The lonely AMD Radeon RX 480 Core Edition 4GB lacks "tuned by XFX" label and works at 1266MHz for the GPU and comes with 4GB of GDDR5 memory clocked at lower 7000MHz.

This allowed XFX to be one of the first AMD AIB partners to have a semi-custom, factory-overclocked RX 480 on the market and hopefully XFX also tuned the reference cooler as this one did not do well in reviews. According to details at the XFX website, "tuned by XFX" means that the card is factory-overclocked at BIOS level and fine-tuned for optimal gaming performance.

Currently, all three are listed in Europe with prices set at €219 for the 4GB Core Edition, €269 for the XXX OC version and €289 for the overclocked RX 480 Black Edition.

While we are quite sure that all three of these AMD AIB partners will also have custom 8GB RX 480 versions ready from day one, all three currently pictured RX 480 graphics cards come with a reference dual-slot blower-style cooler.

While the Radeon R9 Fury X was the only graphics card in the Fury series shipping with AiO liquid cooler, this will apparently change as XFX is working on a Radeon R9 Fury (non-X) version that will feature a similar cooling system.

Pictured by Videocardz.com, the liquid-cooled XFX Radeon R9 Fury looks a lot like the reference R9 Fury X, except some minor cosmetic changes. Of course, since it is based on Radeon R9 Fury ASIC, it packs 3584 Stream Processors but will also feature a factory-overclock, pushing the GPU to 1050MHz and matching the Radeon R9 Fury X.

In case you missed it earlier, the Radeon R9 Fury is pretty much identical to the Radeon R9 Fury X, except for the fact that it packs 3584 Stream Processors and that most of the R9 Fury graphics card on the market ended up with custom air coolers. It still comes with 4GB of High Bandwidth Memory paired up with a 4096-bit memory interface.

According to revealed details, the liquid-cooled Radeon R9 Fury from XFX could end up to be priced somewhere between the US $550 priced reference R9 Fury and US $650 priced Radeon R9 Fury X.

XFX has announced its Radeon R9 295X2 Core Edition graphics card. XFX's Core Edition graphics cards are based on AMD's reference design and the new R9 295X2 is not an exception either as it features the same hybrid liquid+air cooler.

Based on two fully-enabled 28nm Hawaii XT GPUs, the R9 295X2 packs 2816 Stream Processors per GPU and 8GB of memory (4GB per GPU) paired up with dual 512-bit memory interface. The GPUs are clocked at 1018MHz while 8GB of memory ended at 5.0GHz.

All AMD AIB partners are sticking to reference design with liquid+air hybrid cooler which features a block/pump for each of the GPU connected to a 120mm radiator while the central fan takes care of the memory, VRM and the PLX bridge chip.

Based on reference design, it is expected that XFX will stick to AMD's suggested retail price of US $1,499.,
